The mutation was observed as a single branch growing from one plant of the unnamed parent cultivar (unpatented). The mutated branch was propagated by peat media stem cuttings in Homestead, Fla. under mist in a greenhouse.[0003] The new characteristics of the new cultivar `Dazzle` have remained constant through successive generations and the new cultivar reproduces true to type. Asexual reproduction through succeeding generations has established that the combination of characteristics as herein disclosed for the new cultivar are firmly fixed and retained through...
